The project aims at creating a network of some European schools whose
aim will be to support a wide range of activities and organizations
promoting “Active European Citizenship”, since 2013 will be “European
Year of Citizens”
The main objective will be to work to bring Europe closer to students
and teachers and to enable them to participate fully in the European
construction.
Through this project students and teachers will have the opportunity to
be involved in transnational exchanges and cooperation activities,
contributing to developing a sense of belonging to common European
ideals and encouraging the process of European integration.
The project will be divided in 3 stages
• 1st stage - Sensibilization: a set of common activities will be
planned and organized for the celebrations of the 9th May 2013- Day of
Europe or in other dates in order to make the building of Europe more
visible.
• 2ndstage – creation of the “European Info Point”: the students
and teachers will cooperate in the creation and the organization and the
management of an Info Point where the nearby schools or communities
will be given information about EU projects. Teachers will have the
possibility to exchange material and experiences in order to organize
CLIL activities.
• 3rd stage – Organization of activities: for the dissemination
of the project using all the material collected in all the different
countries, workshops or manifestations.
